6 address

•• Address to direct a remark or written statement to; to apply (oneself) to a task or a problem (Oxford American Dictionary).

•• Этот глагол в последние годы вошел в моду и одновременно стал одним из самых широких по значению и гибких глаголов в английском языке. В переводе с английского на русский он обычно требует конкретизации, в переводе с русского – может нередко прийти на помощь переводчику с точки зрения как содержания, так и идиоматичности перевода. Несколько примеров:
•• 1. His purpose, Keys said, was to force the electorate to address his arguments about abortion and the family (Guardian);
•• 2. America needs to start addressing the very real problems still holding our economy back (New York Times);
•• 3. What would happen if a war erupted one day between China and the United States over Taiwan, and Washington asked Japan for support? Japanese government officials are tying themselves in knots these days addressing that issue – or, sometimes, not addressing that issue (International Herald Tribune);
•• 4. The World Bank must address the needs of the poorest countries.
•• Интересно, что в двуязычных словарях перечисляется много достаточно очевидных значений, в переводе не трудных (адресовать, обращаться и т.д.), а наиболее широкое значение приводится только как возвратное (to address oneself to). Но, как видно из приведенных примеров, элемент возвратности часто опускается (вообще большинство английских глаголов может быть как переходными, так и непереходными; как возвратными, так и невозвратными). В этом широком значении глагол to address может переводиться самыми различными русскими словами (и служить переводом для них в русско-английской комбинации). Вот некоторые из них, не всегда легко и идиоматично передающиеся по-английски: обращать внимание на..., решать вопросы, принимать меры, задумываться о..., затрагивать вопрос о...
•• Если теперь вернуться к нашим примерам, то очевидно, что из предложенного списка русских глаголов и глагольных сочетаний можно без труда подобрать подходящий перевод, хотя с примером 3, может быть, придется «повозиться». Вариант: Японские официальные лица в последнее время мучительно пытаются ответить на этот вопрос, а иной раз найти возможность не отвечать на него.
•• Бывают, однако, и такие случаи, когда в тупике может оказаться и опытный переводчик. Иногда глагол to address по широте своего значения сближается с такими глаголами, как to take, to put, to get и т.д. Характерный пример из журнала Time: Though State Department officials say her visit to Prague will deal with NATO matters only, Albright will have to address her recently revealed Jewish past. Может быть, подходящим будет перевод высказаться о..., затронуть? Но дальше в тексте: Aides say she might consider a pilgrimage to the Pinkas Synagogue. Приходится прибегнуть к целостному преобразованию, например, в таком варианте: Ставший недавно известным факт еврейского происхождения Олбрайт не может не наложить отпечаток на ее визит, хотя в госдепартаменте заявляют, что он будет посвящен исключительно вопросам, связанным с НАТО. Максимально широкая семантика слова address и в таком примере: A reorientation of public spending towards labor-market and anti-poverty programs is a far better way of addressing the challenges of globalization (Time). В переводе нужен глагол, сочетающийся с русским существительным вызов (или проблемы, если слово вызов вам не по вкусу). В русской части словаря см. статью решать (проблемы, вопросы).
